One Week Left to Sign Up for Edible Book Fest!

As you may know, The International Edible Book Festival is held annually on April 1st, partially to celebrate the birthday of French gastronome Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1755 - 1826), and partially to celebrate the fun of eating your own words. You can read more about edible books at the official website, www.books2eat.com.

We are very excited to start participating in this Festival and urge you to make an edible book! At the event we will eat non-book snacks and potluck items, photograph and enjoy the books, vote for our favorites, then eat them! As an incentive to participate, the favorite books as voted on by the attendees will receive prizes.

For more information or if you would like to attend this event, please RSVP to Mandy Dunn Sampson at mandydunnsampson@gmail.com. Indicate whether you are bringing an edible book or a potluck item, empty-handed attendees will be charged $10.
